Any model object that you have cut or copied to the Clipboard can be pasted back into a model. You can paste objects into any of the following:
When you paste an object into a model, it is not placed in the same physical location as it appeared in the original model. To see the pasted entity, if required, you must scroll or change to a different Zoom level.
If you paste one or more entities, tables, drawing objects, or views into an existing model, they may overlap other objects. Because all objects pasted into a model are automatically selected, you can easily drag the pasted objects to a blank part of the diagram window.
If you copy a view and subsequently paste that view into a model, the program pastes only the view into the model, and not the base tables associated with that view.
You cannot paste attributes or columns into a model unless you paste the associated entity, table, or view.
Note: Even if the option Disallow Non-unique Names is selected for the current model, the program does not enforce unique naming of model objects when you paste an object. If you want all objects in your model to have unique names, you must manually change the names.
